Project Update: March 2010

A field trip was carried out:

• To identify and consult the various stakeholders on their roles and responsibilities in the project implementation including the Abono traditional authority, staff of Abono Junior High School, the local FM station and various local groups comprising of opinion leaders, District assembly representative and farmers.

• To solicit for their support and commitment to make the project succeed - the allocation of site to be earmarked for the nursery establishment and land for the herb garden.

The outcome of the stakeholder consultations was very reassuring and the people were happy about the benefits the project would offer. Pieces of land for the herb garden and nursery establishment have been offered by the chief and his elders.
